Ashcroft israel true values { April 3 2003 } Original Source Link: (May no longer be active)    http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A16079-2003Apr2.html http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A16079-2003Apr2.html Israel True to Values, Ashcroft Says Thursday, April 3, 2003; Page A08 Attorney General John D. Ashcroft yesterday told a conference of evangelical Christians and Jews who are united in support of Israel that in the face of almost daily terrorist threats, Israel has remained "steadfastly true" to "the values our two nations share." Ashcroft spoke in the afternoon to about 600 members of Stand for Israel, a fledgling group founded by Republican activist Ralph Reed and Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, head of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. The organization presented its first "Friend of Israel" awards last night to House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Tex.) and Rep. Tom Lantos (D-Calif.) for their sponsorship of a House resolution backing Israel last year. Eckstein said Stand for Israel is intended to bring grass-roots support of Israel to bear on U.S. foreign policy, calling it a Christian version of AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. He also said the group is bipartisan, although prominent Republicans appeared to greatly outnumber Democrats at yesterday's events. "When we experienced the horror of September 11th . . . Israel was among those countries most capable of understanding our national pain and our national thirst for justice," Ashcroft told the gathering at the Mayflower Hotel. In accepting his award, DeLay lambasted a State Department human rights report that criticized Israel's treatment of Palestinians. The report "compares the human rights record of a free, tolerant and pluralistic nation with that of a terrorist network. There is no comparison, and to assert one is ridiculous," he said. -- Alan Cooperman © 2003 The Washington Post Company
